Dear Cathedral Family,

I was so pleased with the turnout for Cameron Kuzepski’s organ concert last Sunday. We had many parishioners and members of the wider community attend the concert to hear Cameron perform on our magnificent Schantz organ. Those who attended the concert who are not regular parishioners now know how fortunate we are to have Cameron as our Principal Organist. Cameron is only 21 years old but is mature beyond his years when he is seated at the organ console. Please join us for the remaining concerts in our Cathedral Concert Series. Upcoming performances in the Cathedral Music Series include:

World Premier of Steve Warner’s Good Friday Passion – Friday, March 31st at 7:00 PM
Charm City Bronze Handbell Ensemble – Sunday, April 30th at 3:00 PM

Seek the City to Come Listening Session

The Cathedral will be hosting a listening session Monday, March 20th at 6:00 PM in the parish center for the Seek the City to Come initiative. From the website: "This Archdiocesan initiative is a response to the many needs of our parishes and their neighborhoods. It is a path forward that looks at what the church is currently doing and how it is living in the City of Baltimore and some of the surrounding suburbs. The multi-year process involves extensive listening, learning, and open discussions with individuals, and communities that reflect the rich diversity of the archdiocese, clergy, laity, and religious."
